One woman was shot dead and a second woman was wounded in a violent dispute outside their Bronx apartment building, police said.

Yvette Humphrey, 39, and Nereda Martinez, 38, were shot in the chest at 1:15 a.m. yesterday when a feud broke out in a crowd of people near a building elevator at 1060 Sherman Ave., just off the Grand Concourse.

Humphrey was declared dead at the scene, and Martinez was taken to Lincoln Hospital, where she was listed in critical condition, police said.

A third victim, Frankie Centeno, 18, of East 138th Street, was taken to Lincoln with glass fragments in his left arm.

Police were seeking several suspects, including one who was wearing a red bandanna.
